If you gamble more often you are more likely to get a big win. | Every time you gamble it is an independent event and has nothing to do with what has come before or after. It is more likely that the more you gamble the more you will lose. |
Gambling for long enough will win back any money you lose. | The more you gamble the more you will lose, chasing a loss gets you more in debt. |
Understanding the game will help you win. | It is all to do with chance and although understanding is a benefit it will not help you know the outcome. |
Using the results of previous games will help to work out the results of the next game. | There is no way you can work out the result of your next game. There is no pattern only chance. |
When it comes to gambling there is nothing but chance. Procrastinating about understanding the game or working out the statistics is futile. When you gamble it is a new game with the same chance as the game before or the game after. Casinos have the house edge and the longer you gamble the more money you will lose. Even if you have a win it will not cover your losses.
